According to sources at SSI today, the modern naval sim Harpoon4 is back on schedule and will continue in development.
A senior manager close to the project confirmed today that the game, which had been in development by Ultimation until Ubi Soft killed it last month, was once again on the production schedule. Though no details were available today, the game seems to be still on track for a release later this year.
Efforts had been underway since the game's cancellation to revive it, apparently.
Harpoon4, based on a set of modern naval miniatures wargaming rules by novelist and game designer Larry Bond, is the latest in a line of Harpoon computer games dating back to the original Harpoon from the late 1980s. SSI, once a division of The Learning Company (itself once a part of first Mattel Interactive and then the Gores Technology Group), is now part of the Ubi Soft family of brands, which includes Tom Clancy's Red Storm as well. Clancy and Bond collaborated on the 1986 best seller Red Storm Rising, a novel about a war between NATO and the Warsaw Pact in Germany.

I just heard, too. Great news. Once this game is released, there should be a ton of mods and scenarios for it.
At last - a global, thinking game - play scenarios and command fleets that are based on the headlines taken from today's newspapers.
Can't wait...
